A couple things.  I think this bill is necessary.  Unlike editing your vote, deletion is harder to prove, and vote deletion is thus much more serious.

A couple problems:

1.a.i. should be changed to have the Judiciary handle this.  The Assembly doesn't have the constitutional authority to debate guilt/innocence or give out punishments.  1.ii. would then be removed.

1.b. would be changed to reflect this as well.

As for 1.c., do you mean "elected" official, or "election" official?  If it's the latter, the only election official we have is the Governor.

Ahh... I overlooked the ban on citizenship.  SC's right about that.

As for the statute of limitations, does anybody know offhand what it is for elections in the Mideast and/or federal elections?  If not, I'll look it up later.

This is a 24 hour vote, by the way.

Voting is now closed.  The AYEs are 4, and the NAYs are 0, with 1 not voting.  The AYEs have it, and both amendments are adopted.

The bill now reads as follows:

Also.  Clause 1.B. would need to be an amendment to the Constitution (at least my interpretation).  You can choose to remove it, or pass this as an Amendment.  That's up to you guys.

OK, well Ogis, unless you have plans for this bill, there's not point bringing it to a vote while it's still unconstitutional... so you need to let me know what you want done here.
